responsibility of committees.

Matt: allow non-senators to participate in committees.

Andre: this is not connected with the revisions that we are
doing now. It’s a larger debate should not be done now.

are not getting to the root of the problem.

Matt:withdraw my motion. No objection.

Move on the amendment by Lincoln. Seconded.

Lincoln: yield my time to Alex.

Alex: being a recording secretary is a huge responsibility.
It was a voluntary position, but because of the time commitment, then it was
made a paid position.

position that I ran for. I did not run for the position with this
responsibility.

My proposal would let Elan hire the recording secretary.

Alex’s proposal.

Lincoln: I accept it as friendly.
